So.... Does anyone know how likely this is too get/run beat saber? That's most of what my VR having friends seem to really use VR for.

Very likely. The Valve Index runs it super well when connected to my Linux desktop. Although I had to downgrade the version of Beat Saber to make it work.

Beat Saber is on Steam and is also the best selling VR game of all time, so yeah I'd say it will work. I'd be extremely surprised if it wasn't one of the very first games Valve worked on FEX & proton optimisation for.

Considering Beat Saber already works on Linux just fine, and it isn't particularly demanding/runs fine on less powerful standalone headsets, I imagine it'll work.
